if i remember right, Apothecary gifted a couple cuts to GHSC, including Kaia kush,
however their Bubba Kush was not one of those cuts as Franco claims its a "Bubblegum x Kush" cross in the video.
and the true bubba is i believe "OGkush x West Coast Dog / Old World Kush"
I HIGHLY doubt that. about the pre-98 lineage. i know that seedfinder.eu has it listed as that, but ive heard a lot about this strain lately. supposedly its an almost pure landrace indica that was inbred and further exposed in California. originally just as "bubba kush" some smaller seed companies even offered this strain a few years back. sometime around 2002 i remember first reading about bubba kush in a high times magazine. it didnt say anything about it being a bubblegum mix. so its obviously different from the GHS bubba, and its also been around for quite a while. knowing that, how could it possibly be a chemdawg/chemdog mix of any kind? Soma's NYCD had just started to come around in the early 2000's, and that was the first well known Chemdawg hybrid(even tho no one knew it at the time). right about the same time the OG Kush started to pop up hear and there. and at first the OG was kinda hard to find. the timing just isnt right, PRE-98 Bubba kush is most likely NOT an OG/Chem mix at all. its more likely a landrace Hindu-Kush, possibly from rural Afghanistan or a village like Chitral, or further east in Pakistan and northern India. The strain was then brought to california where it was homogenized and bred to be a very fine top shelf smoke. it is not a high yielder, and theirs of course gonna be better strains, but PRE-98 bubba kush is one of the finest indoor indicas you can get. very big difference from GHS bubba
